Three Demons - Foundation of our Lunar Psyche (111)

Introduction

Master Samael says in his book “The Mountain of Juratena” that the three demons together form the lunar foundation of our psychology.

Just to expand a little upon what Master Samael says: what I think Master Samael is saying is that the three demons which are the demon of desire, the demon of the mind and the demon of ill-will are the ones that together make up lunar structure and characteristics that our psychology has. We all know from previous posts that our psychology in character esoterically speaking is qualified as Lunar. So then the foundation of our psychology is made up by the three demons.

I hope to shed a bit more light on this revelation by Master Samael.

Three Demons Control the World

Can we be so bold to say that the three demons, that is the demons of: desire, the mind and ill will are the factors that control or are at the base of humanity’s thinking processes?

Certainly with all the bad things that happen here on Earth and knowing full well that before things are carried out by any human being there is a thinking process, we have to say without any doubt that instigating and motivating the thinking processes that are behind all the bad things that are done by human beings to other human beings and to nature, are these three demons. We can not think of anything else, definitely nothing better or more refined than the three demons.

Harming another human being is ill will, planning to do it is the demon of the mind and the deep motivation to do it because of a deep desire for money, power, control etc. is the demon of desire.

These three demons can be seen so clearly in the actions carried out by the governments of the world. This is simply because the governments of the world are run by human beings and in every human being (except those who have eliminated them) are the three demons in their psychology.

Examples

If you look carefully into every egoic manifestation (lust, anger, greed, pride, envy, laziness, gluttony etc.) that you have, that if you get angry over something you will find desire, mind and ill-will without a doubt. Anything lunar in us is characterised by these three demons or columns.

Conclusion

The three demons are present in us here and now and the more we study them the more we will come to understand that they are behind so much of pour psychological processes – well 100% of our egoic processes and as we are no different to our fellow human beings they are in them as well, just as they are in us. With the understanding of them will come the need to make conscious and voluntary heart felt efforts to dissolve them.

End (111).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this. In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
